I know he's suppose to be a great guy, but I guess my first impression of him has lasted and then his label screwed this other band.

Funny story - I was on a seven month Med cruise during 1986 when they exploded in popularity. I had never heard of them before before that. Suddenly I kept hearing about this new performer named Bon Jovi that was all the rage, but had no access to the music. I just assumed that Bon was a first name, and Jovi was the last. Figured it was probably a black guy.
I remember the first time I saw one of their videos on MTV when I got back.
That's Bon Jovi? Wow.
